Kraft Kitchens Tips

Makeover - How We Did It

We took a classic recipe and gave it a makeover by replacing the butter in the mashed potatoes with both BREAKSTONE'S Reduced Fat or KNUDSEN Light Sour Cream and KRAFT 2% Milk Shredded Cheddar for great taste and a creamy texture. In addition, we used extra-lean ground beef instead of regular ground beef. These small changes resulted in a savings of 90 calories and 15g of fat per serving.

Substitute

Substitute 1 cup BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Low Fat Cottage Cheese for the sour cream. Blend the cottage cheese in a blender until smooth before using as directed.

This was so easy, my husband and my self now count this as one of our favorites.

I used instant mashed potatoes instead for an even quicker recipe.

The potatoes are awesome, but the recipe needs salt! I knew this from last time, so I added about a teaspoon into the potatoes and another teaspoon with the flour.

I made this the other night for my husband and myself. It was gone in less than two days. I made it just as the recipe said, but next time I think I will add some vidilia onions. We really enjoyed this. Good going Kraft!!

I took a short cut and used instant mashed potatoes - it was just as good.

Along with a salad, this is a great fast and tasty dinner. I added more ground beef and ketchup, but the homeade potato topping makes this dinner a winner.

This was my first try at Shepherds Pie. My husband loved it. Relatively easy to make.

I am a big lover of shephard's pie but my kids do not particularly like mashed potatoes so instead I made it with yellow rice and mixed some mushroom gravy into the hamburger and they gobbled it up!
